Palm Beach Island

Palm Beach Island is one of the most prestigious and picturesque communities in the country, rich in history, timeless elegance, and unmatched lifestyle. Originally developed by Henry Flagler in the late 1800s as a winter retreat for America’s elite, the island flourished in the 1920s under the influence of architect Addison Mizner, whose Mediterranean Revival style defined the town’s iconic aesthetic. From sprawling oceanfront estates to charming pied-à-terres tucked within vine-covered “vias,” Palm Beach architecture continues to captivate.

In recent years, Palm Beach has undergone a renaissance. Over the past five years, a new wave of affluent Northerners has flocked to the island, drawn by its warm climate, low-key glamour, and unmistakable sophistication. This new chapter has redefined Palm Beach, blending its storied past with a vibrant, contemporary energy.

Today, the Palm Beach lifestyle is one of effortless elegance and indulgent leisure. World-class dining and shopping can be found along the legendary Worth Avenue, where designer boutiques and al fresco cafés line beautifully landscaped streets. Nearby, the Royal Poinciana Plaza has emerged as a chic hub for fashion, fine dining, and art, offering a stylish gathering place for residents and visitors.

The cultural heartbeat of the island thrives at the Glazer Center Hall for the Performing Arts, hosting Broadway productions, symphonies, and internationally acclaimed performances. Adding to the cultural allure is The Society of the Four Arts, an architectural gem offering intimate concerts, lectures, and exhibitions. Adjacent to it, a refined waterfront eatery on the Intracoastal Waterway invites guests to dine with views as breathtaking as the cuisine itself.

Palm Beach is more than a destination—it’s a lifestyle. A place where glamour meets tranquility, history meets innovation, and every day feels like a timeless escape.
